TE KANIVA: Tuvalu Climate Change Policy 2012 (English version)

Description

Abstract:
Te Kaniva (Tuvalu Climate ChangePolicy) prescribes the Government and the people of Tuvaluâs strategic polices for responding to climate change impacts and related disaster risks over the next 10 years (2012-2021). The Policy defines seven thematic goals, strategies and desired outcomes that the Government and the people of Tuvalu have prioritised for implementation to ensure that safety and resilience are achieved.

This Policy is 'cross cutting' meaning that climate change impacts affect every development sector and Tuvaluans way of life. Thus its implementation (refer NSAP) should be integrated into all the sectors and thematic areas of Te Kakeega II and all community and islands development.
